  1. That was an obvious face mask. No problem with that call.
  2. Wow. Well our offense sure could use a TD.
  3. Defense needs to step up again. We could use a turnover.
  4. This defense may be better than most fans realize.
  5. But the play calling on that drive was kinda questionable. Run the ball, use up the rest of the clock. That would have even opened up the passing game.
  6. The ultimate "bend but don't break" defense. 🤣🤣
  7. Those type of drives really shortens the game. Limits possessions.
  8. That was as good of a drive as a team can have.
  9. Trying to stop Henry is like trying to stop a train.
  10. Efficient offense. Don't run it good until it's time to score the TD.
  11. I was worried the Lions would fall 2 games behind Green Bay if we lost the Baltimore. But with the Packers losing to Cleveland, we'll still be within a game with a loss.
  12. And the the President gets on stage in front of the whole country and says he HATES Democrats. Half the country. People may not have voted for him but he took an oath to serve and protect the whole country. He really makes me sick...
  13. Were flags lowered when Melissa Hortman, her husband and their dog were killed? Did Trump go to their funerals?
  14. She says it well. Very, very well;
  15. Well, we really don't need 4 catching prospects or 8 infield prospects in our minor league system. As I've been saying, a strong minor league system is for more than to just feed the MLB team with talent, they're also an asset to acquire talent from other teams. The problem for the Tigers is that young minor league players are cheap labor compared to established quality players. Harris wasted 15 million dollars on a broken down pitcher who wanted to retire and ignored other quality arms who were much better. And his trade deadline pickups actually hurt our team more than helped. We may have been better off without Morton or Paddack. Giving Keider Montero and Melton those starts may have gotten us better results. We'll never know...
  16. The drop-off was a sudden, fall off a cliff type. Two huge, double digit offensive outbursts in New York following by a 1-9 streak. Nobody really saw this struggle coming. Fans follow this team for 7 months this year only to have the last month knock the wind out of our sails. Pitchers forgot how to pitch and hitters stop hitting. All suddenly.
  17. Agreed. A RH hitting 3rd baseman and a quality SP. Not someone coming off of injury or some bottom feeding teams rejects but a top notch quality pitcher. And a couple of strong bullpen arms. Next season is a wide open window that very well may close if Skubal decides to split. I don't have very much faith that Harris can get this done. His trades and free agent signings have been....underwhelming. (and that's being nice.)
  18. Yeah, and last year the only reason we could catch Minnesota is because they fell off a cliff. Of course, I think we passed both KC and the Twins. And the Tigers haven't completed this collapse yet, it could be a double collapse. Lose the division and a WC spot. As unlikely as that seemed about 10 days or so ago.
  19. But the point is we fell off a cliff after 2 huge wins. I would never have guessed that was about to happen. I just hope this losing doesn't bleed into next season, the way our winning continued this season from last year. It really is a remarkable turnaround. And quick.
  20. The Tigers beat the Yankees in the first 2 games of that series, scoring double digit runs. Ever since those 2 wins, we're 1-9. What happened during that last NY game that jinxed us? Was a curse put on us by an evil demon in attendance?
  21. The Lions need to control the clock to keep the Ravens offense off the field. And stop the 2 headed Raven rushing attack of Lamar and Henry. What would be really sweet would to beat them on a last second 66 yard field goal.
  22. So he's lost before. Good to know...😆
